ἐμπολιορκέω
From LSJ
Τίς, ξένος ὦ ναυηγέ; Λεόντιχος ἐνθάδε νεκρὸν εὗρέ σ᾿ ἐπ᾿ αἰγιαλοῦ, χῶσε δὲ τῷδε τάφῳ, δακρύσας ἐπίκηρον ἑὸν βίον· οὐδὲ γὰρ αὐτὸς ἥσυχος, αἰθυίῃ δ᾿ ἶσα θαλασσοπορεῖ. → Who art thou, shipwrecked stranger? Leontichus found thee here dead on the beach, and buried thee in this tomb, weeping for his own uncertain life; for he also rests not, but travels over the sea like a gull.
English (LSJ)
